Win more bids with faster follow-up

Most bids aren’t lost on price—they’re lost because no one followed up. Nutshell helps you capture leads around the clock and automatically stay in touch from quote to close.

Add a web form or AI chatbot to your site so leads come in 24/7—even when you’re on a job. Then call or text prospects with one click and let automated sequences handle the follow-up so your best opportunities never go cold.

  • 24/7 lead capture: Web forms and AI chatbot qualify prospects even when you’re on a job site
  • Automated bid follow-up: Send a series of personalized reminders after every quote
  • One-click calling & SMS: Reach leads instantly from any device, no app switching

Keep jobs moving and teams aligned

Whether you’re managing bids, active jobs, or ongoing maintenance contracts, Nutshell’s visual pipelines give everyone—office staff and field crews alike—a clear view of what’s happening and what’s next.

Create separate pipelines for different types of work, assign tasks automatically as jobs progress, and use @mentions to keep communication where the work lives. No more phone tag between the office and the job site.

  • Custom pipelines: Build separate workflows for bids, active jobs, and service contracts
  • Mobile field access: Update job status, log notes, and view client info from anywhere
  • Team alerts & @mentions: Keep office and field crews in sync without the back-and-forth
